Hear Me Out Riot - Shyvana Armor Changes
So, we've got all these base stat changes and meh. Everyone gets +9 armor except supports who get +20. Fun and interactive stat stick garbage.
Moving on.
Shyvana is an interesting case. The champion isn't supposed to be strong in the early game. She's supposed to be a power farmer, and I know that's not something you're interested in supporting.
What about, instead of giving her a healthier early game clear, you instead take the opportunity to double down on Shyvana's power farming fantasy?
Don't give her +9 armor, and instead increase the amount of armor and MR she gains from slaying dragons by 5 each time.
Slaying one dragon will not put her on par with the previous armor, but will give her more MR than previous.
Slaying two dragons puts her slightly ahead.
And then she can continue to scale up.
It's on the Shyvana player to access this power, but it gives her a weaker early game and a stronger late game with counterplay and interaction, while incentivizing her to stop power farming and do something for her team at the same time!
needs that extra armor and forcing her to rely on getting dragons would make her super feast or famine with dragon control. She doesn't have any sustain and even in live server right now, she can get beat up a decent amount in the jungle. Obviously she can clear the jungle fine right now and at a decent speed, but currently she does lose a decent amount of health to do it.
just so her ganks can be useful. If you reduce her armor, then she'll lose even more HP in the jungle which makes her to low to gank and even reduces her efficiency at doing what she is meant to do and that is farm the jungle.
+ 1-2 health potions and barely surviving it. At least for me, I could be using the wrong runes or maybe it did require me all 3, idk it's been a while and maybe others can do it at level 2. Either way, taking early dragons is suppose to be what she is also made for because of her theme and passive, which would take a huge hit without that 9 armor.
is dependent on farming certain monsters just to catch up and gain power that was taken out of their kit and put into it.
, great split pusher. Can do very well as bruiser or tank, and can function on a lone island in a 1v1 lane pretty well. Not every top laner has sustain, and champions are played in their "not really intended" roles all the time...Hell 
who was meant to be a mid lane assassin is now getting balance changes to help him jungle.
, yes she does better as a support but she used to be played mid lane and is still considered a mid lane mage who has the right to be played there.
should all be able to lose the game well before they hit their power spikes. If you are choosing to play a late-game champion, there should be a certain percentage of games where you as a player feel like and genuinely do contribute nothing because the opponents played well and ran your team over before you were useful.
and the enemy jungler is 
who can gank and be useful as early as level 2. If you reduce Shyvana's effectiveness at the only thing she really can do (farm the jungle) then she would feel like she can't do anything.
for example. And no, don't even say that Shyvana is an infinite scaling champion because her stacks only apply to elemental dragons and doesn't apply to Elder. So at best she'll get like 4 Dragons in a good game...maybe 5 if you were to take it at level 2-3 and then every time it respawns instantly.
being mostly played mid lane now but he can still function pretty fairly as an ADC bot, though the only cases that picking him ADC is a good idea is if you are lacking magic damage.
